Saturday: Caravan from Denton to Crawford
Join the Denton Caravan to
Crawford, Texas
Saturday August 13, 2005!

Departing from the
Courthouse on the Square in Denton
@ 9 AM (Arrive in Crawford at noon)

Who: Anyone who wants to hold Bush accountable for this criminal war.

Why: Cindy Sheehan, mother of army specialist Casey Sheehan who was killed in Sadr City, Baghdad on April 4, 2004 is camping outside of Bush's "ranch". Cindy is not leaving before Bush comes out and answer her question: "Why did you kill my son?" And because it's about time!


Bring your car or just yourself. Call 940 531 1583 or 972 333 2622 if you have ANY questions, or just to let me or Dan know if you'll be joining with a car or a van or are wanting to ride in somebody's vehicle.

Many are planning to return that same evening, some are planning to camp at the Crawford Peace House and head back on Sunday. If planning to camp out, bring tents, personal toiletry and other items that you might need.


Most of us will NOT risk arrest. However, we DO want to be there to support those who will, thereby reducing the chance of their arrest and change the tide on this war. This guy does not deserve a 5 week vacation, let's not have him have it! (Remember major media are camped in Crawford, too.)

Come join in the making of history. If you don't know anyone who's
going, that's OK, too. What better way to meet new people?!

1. I wish I could do this......but I have to work Saturday morning.
I am still thinking of hauling down there for part of the day on Sunday, if someone would like to do that, PM me and maybe we can work something out.

2. Crispini,
Last I heard as of tonight we are doing everything we can for there to be no arrests. Talking of it is not helping.

Thanks/

Dan knows of what I speak and I've been on the phone with Hadi and Kay along with the Peace Center constantly.

3. She was obviously posting this information....
that Dan stated in a previous mail. It was for everyone's information. If I was going, I'd be grateful for it.

I've spoken to a few people who want to go but don't want to get arrested. This qualification just lets everyone know what people are and aren't willing to deal with while they're down. The hardier folks can settle in for the long haul-- those who have obligations, family, or can't risk arrest can separate themselves and make a quick exit if need be.

Dan may know, but not everyone else knows how likely it might be.

S, I'd really like to know when you were appointed the Watchdog for everything going on in this forum for all Crawford business. I know you work with the Peace Center, and that's great. But your constant berating and correcting people is really getting old.

First, we're not doing enough to pay attention to the vets, and now crispini's doing too much.
